Howard Wood - Dakota Relays Participants
This coming Friday and Saturday, April 30 and May 1, some of the guys will be heading to the Dakota Relays at Howard Wood Field in Sioux Falls. The link will take you to a meet setup. There will be no girls participating there this year. However, Mr. Pedersen is inquiring about going to the Ipswich Relays on Saturday, so we will let you know what comes of that. We will also get information to you on the status of tomorrow's meet in Miller.

Kimball Invitational Results
We had a decent day for the Kimball Invitational on Thursday, April 22. It was in the 60s with SE wind at 10-15 MPH. Performances were mixed, as both boys' and girls' teams finished in fourth place out of fifteen teams. Brad Bridgman won the boys' high jump with a jump of 5' 11. After securing the win he bumped it up to 6' 4 1/4 in order to attempt a school record. He did not make it, but his first miss was close, and he was jumping with confidence, so maybe he can get that in the coming month. The 4x800 relay turned in a nice performance, running one of the top times in the state this year. Caleb Crossman ran the 800 meter distance for the first time in that event and did a very nice job. Ethan McClain hit a state meet qualifying standard in the 3200 meter run with a time of 10:30.3. He is coming off some sickness and injury, so it was good to get back on the track and get some work in.
The girls' team has been hit with a couple of knee injuries. Despite that, they had some nice performances yesterday as well. Megan Burma brought her 1600 time down as did Tricia Wilken in the 300 hurdles. Thanks to all who have come out to support the teams. The links below will take you to the Kimball school web site pages where the results are posted.

Kimball Invitational Setup
We had a beautiful day for Clean-a-thon today and it sounds like tomorrow will be another nice day, with maybe a bit of a breeze picking up. We have won the boys' team title at Kimball the last two years, so maybe we can make it a three-peat. The links will take you to the meet setups. Hope to see many of you there.

Gettysburg Invitational Results
Saturday was a decent day for track, sunny and high temperature in the 60s, though the breeze from the SSE was a bit chilly. Absence and injury took their toll on the boys team as six team members did not compete. The girls were short on some events as well. First place performances for SBA were registered by Tricia Wilken in the 300 hurdles and Brad Bridgman in the long jump. Team points and medals were awarded up to six places at this meet. The link below will take you to the results page.

SBA Invitational - Thoughts
We completed another SBA Invitational yesterday. I always come away from this meet awed by the folks who help us pull this off. In addition to the student body, the faculty, staff, and other volunteers fill in to help get everything done, and all is done with a great spirit. To each one we say a big thank you. We could not do this each year without every one who plays a part. And for those who will be around to help next year, maybe we won't have to deal with 40 MPH winds! (It was a bad hair day for all, except Matt Van Zee :). Thanks again all.

SBA Invitational Results
Wind was the order of the day at the SBA Invitational in Huron on Tuesday, April 13, 2010. The temperature made it up into the upper 70s, and it was mostly clear, but high winds had a definite impact on performances. They gusted from 25-40 MPH, possibly higher in the afternoon. All-in-all it was a good day. The boys finisthed in 3rd place and the girls 6th. There are a few injuries on both boys' and girls' teams, but most are making good progress. I have posted the team scores and will get the individual results up in as soon as I can. Maybe we'll throw in a little video also.

Central Dakota Invite Results
We had a beautiful day for a track meet on Thursday for the Central Dakota Invite in Miller. It was sunny, low 60s, calm - really nice. We had two state meet qualifying performances on the boys side. Brad Bridgman, who had already qualified for state with a jump of 5' 11", improved his high jump mark to 6' 2", putting him at third best on the school's all time top ten performance list. A medley team consisting of Cody Weiss, James Lee, Caleb Crossman, and Ethan McClain also hit a state qualifying standard, running a time of 3:47.6. On the girls' side, Megan Burma was a triple winner in the 4x800 relay and the 1600 and 3200 meter runs.
Here are the links to results for boys, girls, and team scores. I apologize for the look of the boys page; the format in Excel does not always look the greatest, but hopefully we can figure out how to make them look better. I have included a video of Brad Bridgman's jump of 6' 2".

Patriot Invitational
We competed at the Patriot Invitational in Redfield last Thursday, April 1. This meet was hosted by Hitchcock-Tulare and was our first track meet of the season. The day was very nice with highs near 60 degrees and mostly sunny with fairly light winds from the northeast. The athletes performed well for an early season meet; we were able to get an idea of what type of conditioning we possessed, and we have concluded that we have much upward potential. The boys placed 4th as a team and the girls placed 5th. You can find the girls individual results here and the guys results here. Team scores are below.
